Good point. But that same point argues even more for a rate cut. If the surpluses start shrinking that will negatively impact the debt buyback plan of the treasury putting pressure on yields to rise.

No change in rates, but bias changed to concern about a slowdown. Looks like easing bias.

I believe you are correct regarding a tax shortfall. I heard on the radio this morning that some states are already seeing revenues falling below expectations.

I would have loved to have witnessed Bush's meeting with Greenspan yesterday. Bush characterized it as a very forceful discussion about his confidence in Greenspan's abilities. That doesn't sound like a discussion. I suspect Greenspan responded with a long pause.
